How a brewing legal fight could derail Puerto Rico’s growing solar industry

from POLITICO Energy · host POLITICO

There’s a legal fight brewing in Puerto Rico that could threaten the future of rooftop solar incentives in the territory. That dispute comes as Puerto Rico has some of the most ambitious renewable energy goals in the United States, and as the territory’s grid remains unreliable. POLITICO’s Gloria Gonzalez breaks down the fight and the potential consequences for the territory and the solar industry. Plus, the Biden administration is facing its first legal challenge to its implementation of the EV tax credit rules under the Inflation Reduction Act.   For more news on energy and the environment, subscribe to Power Switch, our free evening newsletter: https://www.politico.com/power-switch And for even deeper coverage and analysis, read our Morning Energy newsletter by subscribing to POLITICO Pro:  https://subscriber.politicopro.com/newsletter-archive/morning-energy   Josh Siegel is an energy reporter for POLITICO.  Nirmal Mulaikal is a POLITICO audio host-producer.  Annie Rees is the managing producer for audio at POLITICO.
